Extra savings required = 4792-3833 = $959(appx.)Couple of suggestions - - You can set an expense target instead of a savings target. That way, when your income continues to grow, your savings will grow even faster. - TD

I really like this idea of an expense target - track expenses and make sure that they're under x dollars each month. This seems like a good challenge! As always, the fixed expenses are easy to document. It's the discretionary expenses that will take some work to track.
